Answer:

I think that the central idea conveyed in the above excerpt is that the United States is willing to extend help to nations that are under communism. They are willing to extend help through financial aid and economic stability to ensure that the people under the beleaguered nations can also enjoy the freedom that citizens of the United States enjoy under a democratic government. However, the citizens of the United States must also be in agreement with the proposal of extending help to other nations.

Truman uses Logos and Pathos to persuade his audience to his way of thinking.  

Logos refers to logic. Pathos refers to an appeal to emotions.

He uses the words "I believe..." to infer how passionate he is about his proposals. He also gives logical scenarios that support his beliefs.

Over [174]

This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question.

Read “Asian Men Can Jump,” by Gish Jen (2012, New York Times)

In 2012, Jeremy Lin led an unexpected winning streak by the New York Knicks, becoming the first Asian-American player to rise to prominence in the National Basketball Association. The writer Gish Jen published the following op-ed reflecting on the significance of Lin’s success.

Read the passage carefully, then complete the following tasks:  

Identify a claim made by Jen and explain the reasoning underlying this claim.

List at least two pieces of supporting evidence from the passage and briefly explain how they support the claim you have identified

Answer:

Jen claims that her brother, Bob, could be "the fittest 58-year-old on the planet." Of course, this is not a claim to be taken literally. It means that his health and physical state is incredibly good for his age.

Explanation:

The evidence she provides is that her brother´s doctor has estimated Bob´s biological age at 35. She further supports her claim saying that "he´s still climbing big mountains in the Himalayas," which is a monumental physical effort.
